[quote=Anonymous]OP, I know this can be a stressful situation.  I had one year when my DC was sick a lot.  He had a fever for a week, some days 104 even with Motrin.  I was stressed because it was viral and couldn't be treated with antibiotics.  In addition to that, DC is prone to getting strep, which he had multiple times that year.  What I did was any day he had a fever or strep but wasn't completely wiped out, I had him sit in bed and do some school work.  Talk to the teacher and explain the situation.  Ask her to allow your DC to bring home any work missed so your DC can do it over the weekends.  Also, get a grade appropriate workbook and have DC work on it if you feel he/she is behind.  Don't stress.  A little work on weekends, teacher work days and an hour or so each day over spring break will help.  I would definitely contact the principal to make sure those absences were properly recorded.  I know deciding about surgery for your child can be stressful.  Don't stress about the letter, it's probably a form letter.[/quote]
